Funding Usage
Property Purchase: Asking Price: $110,000 Renovation/Update Costs: Estimate the costs of minor updates needed. This can vary widely, so I would need detailed quotes or estimates from contractors. The property is livable with tenants already living in it. Closing Costs: Typically, closing costs are around 2% to 5% of the property purchase price. For simplicity, let's use 3% for this calculation. Contingency Fund: It's advisable to have a contingency fund for unexpected expenses. This is often calculated as a percentage of the renovation costs, say 10%. So, the total grant funding needed would be: Total Funding = Purchase Price + Renovation Costs + Closing Costs + Contingency Fund Total Funding=Purchase Price+Renovation Costs+Closing Costs+Contingency Fund I would prefer to open a mortgage on the home using the funding to support a down payment of market value requirements based on the value of the home. I would then use the excess to make updates to the property to bring it to code (if inspection deems it not to code) and update interior and exterior to make it more appealing to renters and include amenities such as interior furnishings.
